emmy2007 - Comedies - Writing, Directing, Outstanding

Tagged as:

I'm not a huge fan of comedies. Most of them really aren't funny. Some of them are downright painful to watch. Like The Office. Many people love this show. I can't stand it. I didn't like the British version, either. I will say the American version is slightly better, though, but still not my cup of tea. Or coffee.

Then you have My Name is Earl. That's a comedy I like. It has a point and a premise. Karma. It's absurd, but enjoyable to watch.

NBC with Scrubs and CBS with How I Met Your Mother stand a good chance of winning.

So the nominees are... (Is that phrase copyrighted?)

Outstanding Comedy Series
Entourage
The Office
30 Rock
Two And A Half Men
Ugly Betty

Ugly Betty is really the odd duck in that group. It's the only one I like, but I prefer it when it's more serious. Two And A Half Men has a strong vibe this year.

Outstanding Writing For A Comedy Series
Extras "Daniel Radcliffe"
The Office "Gay Witch Hunt"
The Office "The Negotiation"
30 Rock "Tracy Does Conan"
30 Rock "Jack-Tor"

Because I'm not a fan of the other two...

Outstanding Directing For A Comedy Series
Entourage - One Day In The Valley
Extras - Orlando Bloom
The Office - Gay Witch Hunt
Scrubs - My Musical
30 Rock - The Breakup
Ugly Betty - Pilot

I'm gong to say Scrubs. But then it could also be Ugly Betty, which is more likely. Musicals, you know.
